A good caesar salad is one of those weirdly simple yet oh so satisfying things for me, if done right. Meaning, the dressing has to be home made and the bacon has to be the real deal 🥓. Continue reading “The Best Paleo Caesar Salad”

Easy Hollandaise
I can already hear you thinking: “But isn’t all that butter and egg going to clog my arteries?”. The answer to that in a nutshell is, NO. Without diving too deep into the world of nutrition science, I want you to know that saturated fat is not inherently unhealthy. Continue reading “Easy Hollandaise”
Cauliflower Alfredo Sauce
Trust me when I say: The sauce tastes about a million times better than the picture looks. If you love a good cream sauce but like me, don’t do so well with dairy products, this sauce may just change your life. Continue reading “Cauliflower Alfredo Sauce”

Every once in a while, a new sauce walks into your life and changes everything. I went through this with Pesto, Cashew Cream, and my Lemon-Tahini dressing. Well, a few days ago, I found a new love; Romesco 😍. Continue reading “Romesco Sauce”

Caesar Dressing (gluten-free & vegan)
This dressing, like all dressings or sauces I make from scratch is (not to brag but…) good enough to eat by the spoon. If you are skeptical and have never used cashew as a dairy or egg substitute, don’t be. Cashews are the bomb. All you have to do is soak them for at least for hours (but preferably overnight), and blend them. Continue reading “Caesar Dressing (gluten-free & vegan)”
Pico de Gallo

Easy Paleo Mayo
If you are wondering why anyone would ever go through the trouble of making their own mayo…Let me answer your question with a question: Have you read the back of a mayo jar lately? I don’t know about you but eating anything containing hydrogenated vegetable oil such as soybean or canola is right at the top of my NO list. And as tempted as I am to get into the juicy details of why these oils are absolutely awful for your health AND for the environment, I am going to let you do your own research and save the lecture for another time. For now, you’re just going to have to take my word for it. Continue reading “Easy Paleo Mayo”
Baba Ganoush
What is Baba Ganoush you may ask?
In Jordanian, Syrian, Palestinian, and Lebanese cuisine, it is made of eggplant blended with finely diced onions, tomatoes, and other vegetables. The Egyptian version, known in the Levant as mutabbal, is made of roasted, peeled, and mashed eggplant, blended with tahini, garlic salt, and lemon juice. Continue reading “Baba Ganoush”
